Physically Based Real‐Time Rendering of Eclipses

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract We present a novel approach for simulating eclipses, incorporating effects of light scattering and refraction in the occluder's atmosphere. Our approach not only simulates the eclipse shadow, but also allows for watching the Sun being eclipsed by the occluder.

Development of glass-ceramic scintillators for gamma-ray astronomy

, 2015
Scintillators synthesised as glass-ceramics have several potential benefits compared to the currently-used halide scintillators, including non-hygroscopicity, mechanical ruggedness, ease of producing customisable shapes, and the potential for low-cost ...

Real‐Time Rendering Framework for Holography

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract With the advent of holographic near‐eye displays, the need for rendering algorithms that output holograms instead of color images emerged. These holograms usually encode phase maps that alter the phase of coherent light sources such that images result from diffraction effects.

Astronomy Identity Framework for Undergraduate Students and Researchers [PDF]

arXiv
This research was a qualitative transcendental phenomenological exploration of astronomy identity formation among astronomy majors and physics majors engaged in astronomy research. Participants (N=10), all of whom identified with traditionally marginalized groups in astronomy, were recruited from two large universities in New York State at different ...

Gamma-ray Astronomy

, 2007
The relevance of gamma-ray astronomy to the search for the origin of the galactic and, to a lesser extent, the ultra-high-energy cosmic rays has long been recognised. The current renaissance in the TeV gamma-ray field has resulted in a wealth of new data on galactic and extragalactic particle accelerators, and almost all the new results in this field ...

HyperFLINT: Hypernetwork‐based Flow Estimation and Temporal Interpolation for Scientific Ensemble Visualization

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract We present HyperFLINT (Hypernetwork‐based FLow estimation and temporal INTerpolation), a novel deep learning‐based approach for estimating flow fields, temporally interpolating scalar fields, and facilitating parameter space exploration in spatio‐temporal scientific ensemble data. This work addresses the critical need to explicitly incorporate

Insights on the volcanic and impact histories of the lunar nearside from the petrology, geochemistry, and geochronology of the Calcalong Creek lunar regolith breccia meteorite

Meteoritics &Planetary Science, Volume 60, Issue 3, Page 392-421, March 2025.
Abstract The Calcalong Creek lunar meteorite is a regolith breccia with a lithologically diverse array of clasts set in a glassy, highly vesicular matrix. Here, we present a comprehensive new analysis of the meteorite. Comparisons to remote sensing data, lunar sample lithologies, and lunar sample ages indicate that it was likely sourced from regolith ...

TeV Analysis of a Source-rich Region with the HAWC Observatory: Is HESS J1809-193 a Potential Hadronic PeVatron?

The Astrophysical Journal
HESS J1809-193 is an unidentified TeV source, first detected by the High Energy Stereoscopic System (H.E.S.S.) collaboration. The emission originates in a source-rich region that includes several supernova remnants (SNRs) and pulsars including SNR G11.1 ...

Experimental Gamma-Ray Astronomy [PDF]

Journal of Physics: Conference Series, 2012
Our knowledge of the γ-ray sky has dramatically changed due to the advent of the new ground-based Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescopes (H.E.S.S., MAGIC and VEPJTAS) and the satellite-borne instruments (AGILE and Fermi). These facilities boosted the number of γ-ray sources by one order of magnitude in the last 6 years, providing us with about 2000 ...
